This past weekend was filled with lots of family and fun. Some of my father's family were here and we all gathered at our family cabin on Mt Graham. We went up Saturday and let the kids play and get really dirty. My cousins have kids the same ages as my kids so there was no lack of playmates...19 kids under age 8! We rested on Sunday and then went back up on Monday. It is so fun to catch up with family and build strong and lasting bonds. Our cabin was built by my great-grandfather when my grandfather was a child. It has had some improvements made over the years but it is still a sentimental place to go, full of rich family heritage and tradition. The kids love to hike to "cow canyon" and be taken to the "bear cave" just as I did as a kid. I am so thankful to have such a wonderful place to go and relax. Here are some pictures from our weekend...
